Frozen Banana Snickers
Frozen Banana Snickers combine the natural sweetness of bananas with creamy peanut butter and chocolate for a guilt-free treat perfect for warm days.
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 4 pieces ripe bananas Use firm but slightly speckled bananas for best sweetness.
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter Can be substituted with almond or cashew butter.
- 1 cup chocolate chips Use dark, milk, or white chocolate as preferred.
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil Helps to smooth the chocolate when melting.
- to taste sea salt Optional, for an extra flavor boost.
- to taste chopped nuts Optional, for topping.
Instructions
Preparation
- Peel the ripe bananas and slice them into about half-inch thick rounds.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- Place a dollop of peanut butter on one banana slice and top it with another banana slice to create a sandwich.
- Repeat this process until all banana slices are used. Optionally, sprinkle sea salt between the peanut butter layers.
- Freeze the banana sandwiches for about 1 hour, or until firm.
Chocolate Coating
- While the bananas are freezing, melt chocolate chips and coconut oil together in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in 30-second intervals and stirring until smooth.
- Once the banana sandwiches are frozen, remove them from the freezer.
- Dip each sandwich into the melted chocolate, ensuring it's completely coated.
- Place the chocolate-covered sandwiches back on the lined baking sheet and sprinkle with chopped nuts before the chocolate hardens.
- Return the baking sheet to the freezer for another 30 minutes to set the chocolate.
